Thank you for the reminder of what should be an essential daily routine for writers and many others .

I immerse myself in writing (and some bourbon does help) to escape not only reality, but also the world’s unreality, simulacra, media, cyberspace, and sensory overload (except, of course, for TKZ), and to journey into my own world and create my own reality, unreality and simulacra.

I discovered a while ago that I can’t be happy in a job that doesn’t include writing. I began technical writing, then communications/marketing, and found my day job niche. Now, if I could only make fiction writing my day job…

Yes, writing is important to me. I think, in the terms of Bradbury’s quote, I’m a writaholic. 🙂

An author I like wrote: ‘I don’t know what I think about anything until I write about it.’ I just googled that to remind myself of who it was, and at least 25 different published writers names popped up.
